1
2Let my prayer be set forth as incense before thee; The lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.
3Set a watch, O Yahweh, before my mouth; Keep the door of my lips.
4Incline not my heart to any evil thing,
5Let the righteous smite me, [it shall be] a kindness; And let him reprove me, [it shall be as] oil upon the head; Let not my head refuse it:
6Their judges are thrown down by the sides of the rock; And they shall hear my words; for they are sweet.
7As when one ploweth and cleaveth the earth,
8For mine eyes are unto thee, O Yahweh the Lord:
9Keep me from the snare which they have laid for me,
10Let the wicked fall into their own nets,
